Yes, something has corrupted or modified your OS.
- Did you install any programs, drives or perform any updates? If yes, uninstall.
- Did you perform any scans (trojans or anti-virus) recently? If yes, perform a restore. If an online scan:
The beauty of an OS like 98 (unlike the crap 2K) is you can do a soft install over the existing one.
Run set-up (setup) from a dos prompt and re-install you OS. (Yah, BillyBoy's message will say it is not recommended.)
Drivers and yadda yadda will be intact (some software links maybe severed, but that is a minimal problem).
I have many many friends that use various OSs, and my fav to fix is 98 - I perform soft installs all the time, with no problem!
(Try the function "repair OS" from a 2k or XP disc ... what a mess that is.)

shit, I forgot win98 can soft instal that easily, might be worth trying |
